I quite like AI art.

It's capable of generating things that we've not seen before because as hard as we try what we create always has a human filter on it.

If people don't like it it won't catch on anyway.

Have you ASKED artists to draw these things they're supposedly incapable of?

Exactly, personalised art should only be for those who can afford to pay for it. Expanding that privilege to more people is very bad.

It’s literally a luxury, and trying to yank the rug out from under the artists who actually made the art the plagiarism machine runs on isn’t going to change that. You don’t need personalized art, and if you REALLY REALLY want personalized art super bad then that just underlines the value that artists give to society.

It’s literally a luxury to have your own copy of a book, and trying to yank the rug out from under the scribes who actually made the books the plagiarism press runs on isn’t going to change that. You don’t need your own book and if you REALLY REALLY want one super bad then that just underlines the value that scribes give to society.

Modern society was partly possible due to the printing press. Yep, it sucks that people had their jobs replaced and if it were happening now I'd be fighting for them to be looked after, as they should.

Generating art is not some amazing world changing technology, it's trash. We do not need to replace artists, and frankly we just fucking shouldn't.

If it's so trash it won't replace them right? So there's no issue.

Plus these neural networks could be the stepping stones to a truly transformative technology and in 100 years someone will be saying exactly what you said about the printing press.

Hate for AI is a meme at this point.

Tell that to Disney, for example. It wouldn't replace artists in a world that cared about artistic quality... we don't live in that world.

For capitalists, easily generated shit is good enough.

That's down to the audience. If people won't accept it then it won't be done. If people do then why wouldn't they.

If I can’t have the plagiarism machine spit out 100 pics of my big tiddy anime gf kissing me that’s just like children not having access to books. Won’t someone think of how every generation before this lived under the oppression of artists who wouldn’t work for free? 😭

It’s also a crime to reprint anything without the original author or artist’s permission so you might not like where your analogy leads lmao.

I do not like theft laundering machines.

I like people.

AI actually has good uses when embedded within technology, a great example being natural language processing, it's capable of so much good especially for the disabled. But so much effort is being focused on creating junk, using stolen data. People are not being paid for their work which is then being used to replace their jobs.
